Cost of raising a child

See how much it costs

Raising a child is exciting but can be expensive. A bit of planning ahead will help you manage your money both before and after your baby arrives. We've asked our favourite Mummy Blogger, Sarah, to give Laura some of her best tips for planning for her new arrival. Our Having a Baby section has lots of tools and tips to help make sure that you're prepared.

Now that you've worked out how much it will cost, why don't you set up use our Savings Goal Tool to help you save. The tool has been rated 5* by the Fairbanking Foundation so is a great way for you to stay on track.
